compared to the bad effect on insulin resistance ------ No (effects entire body)

most of the large consumption of soft drinks, don't use sugar anyway they use azulfamine, and sugar subs. while they have less insulin stimulating effect than sucrose/glucose they still have some.


I don't know where you are getting your information etoh. Did you just say there is no sugar in Mountain Dew?

"Why Mountain Dew Is Worse Than Other Types of Soda

There is no such thing as a healthy soda. However, Mountain Dew is the worst type of soda that you can drink. Dentists stated that this beverage causes the teeth to decay at an astonishing rate. In fact, soda can be just as damaging to the teeth as meth.

The sugar content is the main factor that makes Mountain Dew worse than other sodas. One serving of “The Dew” has 11 teaspoons of sugar. One serving of Coca Cola only has 9 grams of sugar, which is a lot already. Mountain Dew also has a lot of citric acid in it, which will soften your enamel.


Additionally, Mountain Dew has a pH level of 3.3. This level of acidity is enough to do some serious damage to your teeth. With that said, it’s best for you to avoid drinking any type of soda, but Mountain Dew in particular."



not saying no sugar in Mt. Dew, saying all methheads do not restrict their soda to mt. Dew.
actually the citric acid is good for you , goes straight into the Krebs cycle without stimulating insulin, while coke has phosphoric acid.

No soda is the best, and any sugar is bad from the insulin resistant point of view not the the dental point of view.


some sources show only 3.8 gms per 12 fl. oz for Mt. Dew it would seems the sources out there cant even agree
